Important factors that may cause such a difference for Broadcom in connection with Broadcom networking infrastructure solutions that support the Energy Efficient Ethernet draft-standard, but are not limited to:

-- General economic and political conditions and specific conditions in the
markets we address, including the volatility in the technology sector
and semiconductor industry;
-- The rate at which our present and future customers and end-users adopt
Broadcom's technologies and products in the markets;
-- Delays in the adoption and acceptance of industry standards in those
markets;
-- Our ability to timely and accurately predict market requirements and
evolving industry standards and to identify opportunities in new
markets;
-- The timing of customer-industry qualification and certification of our
products and the risks of non-qualification or non-certification.

Our Annual Report on Form 10-K, subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, recent Current Reports on Form 8-K, and other Securities and Exchange Commission filings discuss the foregoing risks as well as other important risk factors that could contribute to such differences or otherwise affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.
